E. The Result of Proportionment Must Protect the Bona Fide Rights of Prior Entrymen.

All lost corners must be restored by proportionate measurement so that all interested parties receive an equitable share of existing excess or deficiency. Patents are equitably protected when a lost corner is proportioned between original corners (or control) which represent the survey from which the patent was issued. Parenthetical distances and area calculations are important factors which must be considered in order to protect the bona fide rights of prior entrymen.
